Crossfire (Noughts & Crosses #5)

Crossfire is the long-awaited new novel in legendary author Malorie Blackman's ground-breaking Noughts & Crosses series - perfect for fans of The Handmaid's Tale and The Power.

Thirty-four years have passed since Sephy Hadley - a Cross - first met Callum McGregor - a nought. Their love was forbidden, powerful - and deadly.

Life is seemingly very different now for noughts and Crosses - including for Sephy and Callum's families. But old wounds from the past are hard to heal, and when you're playing a game as dangerous as they are, it won't be long before someone gets caught in the crossfire.

Praise for Noughts & Crosses:'The Noughts & Crosses series are still my favourite books of all time and showed me just how amazing story-telling could be' - Stormzy; 'The most original book I've ever read' Benjamin Zephaniah; 'Blackman "gets" people . . . she "gets" humanity as a whole, too' Guardian; 'Powerful' Sunday Times
